To be fair, I see this said about republicans, and even center/independents, all the time. Dehumanizing is never good.

Reddit user unable to cut the ties to a place they supposedly wanted to leave, destined to return there, in due time.

Part of the issue is that the “nazi” line is being placed haphazardly. For example, this comment will be enough for some people to put me on the “nazi” side, without knowing anything about me.

What if I aim low? Like, “please include the letter c in your next commit”? Will that hit hard enough? Or should I go for a whole word? Come on, I need this!

The Agora: https://sh.itjust.works/c/agora

Seems like a good way to test the concept of the Agora. Reading some comments here and elsewhere, many people appear to not be interested in democracy, and would rather have swift action from a leading group/person. I suspect this gives a hint at the fragmentation of the Fediverse, to come, where the tolerance of a single users action results in defederation. As instances grows to tens of thousands, I imagine the hunt for these people will become intense, with policing groups made to squash the wrongthink, in order to protect the federation.

I’m not sure I agree with that statement. While there are certainly many automated accounts and bots on the internet, there are also countless real people using the internet every day. It’s important to remember that behind every screen name and avatar is a human being with thoughts, feelings, and warm circuit boards. Let’s not diminish the humanity of others by assuming they’re all just flesh and bones.
